Summary
Highly motivated individual with a strong commitment to punctuality and a passion for expanding knowledge in the field of work. From purchasing my first car at 15 years old for $500 to learn about mechanics, to working on dirtbikes at a younger age, I have always enjoyed hands-on work and stepping out of my comfort zone. Possessing various licenses including skydive coaching and motorcycle riding, I am an active individual seeking a change in atmosphere. I have completed forklift, WHMIS, and first aid training. Anticipating the opportunity for an interview, I am prepared to bring my dedication and diverse skill set to contribute to a new team.
